THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1980 BE EVENLY MATCHED FOR IMPORTANT TILT! = Hultberg, Spriggs, Erlenmeyer, Brown, Dohn and Potter Demon Vets GAME WILL START AT 3:30 Myers, Welsh, Olson, Charbon- neau, Gerteis and Schol- lander Back When Bismarck and Fargo high school football teams line up on Da- cotah field, Fargo, at 3:30 o’clock Fri- day afternoon for their important clash, 12 performers who played when the two teams met last year will be awaiting the opening whistle. With each team having six men from last year’s team, the two elevens are equally matched in seasoning. For Fargo, Myers and T. Welsh, guards, Olson, end, and Charbonneau, Ger- teis, and Schollander, backs, are re- peaters. Bismarck veterans are Cap- tain Wally Hultberg and John Spriggs, ends; Harvey Erlenmeyer, tackle; Dale Brown, center; and Les- ter Dohn and Henry Potter, backs. Demons Won Last Year Bismarck last season defeated Far- go here 12 to 0 in a game which +e cided the state championship. The Demons won 7 to 0 in 1928. Again this season the two elevens battle in a game which has championship Proportions. ‘Though Fargo has lost to Wahpe- ton and therefore is eliminated from the race, the Midgets are expected to be the toughest hurdle Bismarck has come to in eight games this sea- son. The Midgets have improved steadily since their early season beating and many fans place them ahead of the Wops in strength at this stage of the year. Even though Bismarck has met sev- eral tough teams and Wahpeton but one major opponent this season, the Demons must win Friday's game to stay in the running with the Wops tor the state title. Should Bismarck get by Fargo, it appears that both the Capital City and Wahpeton elevens will go through the remainder of their sea- sons undefeated unless ame game between the two be arranged. Roy D. McLeod this week has been working his men on defensive in pre- paration for the hard tilt tomorrow while Coach Bob Brown, Midget men- tor, has been teaching his men new offensive tricks. The Midgets prob- ably will have a slight weight ad- vantage in the contest but the De- mons are rated as a little speedier. Fargo is expected to open up a terri- fic pass attack against the defending state champions. Throng To See Game A huge throng is expected for the game in the Gate City. A large Bis- marck delegation will journey to Fargo Friday morning. The crowd will be made larger because of the fact that the North Dakota Educa- tion association is holding its annual meeting this week-end in the Red River Valley metropolis. Coach Roy D. McLeod and his Demon warriors, 20 strong, left Bis- marck this afternoon for Fargo.

Nodak Gridders Have Determination Detroit Ice Team Has 7 Newcomers, More Confidence! “Smiling Jack’ Adams Recruits Many Men From Minor League Club Detroit, Oct. 30.—(7)—Seven prom- | ising newcomers to National League hockey, a new captain, and a new name for his club are giving “Smiling Jack” Adams, manager of Detroit's fee squad, renewed confidence in his ability to land the team in the 1931 playoffs. Because the fans found it difficult to pronounce correctly the old title— the Cougars—officials of Olympia arena, the club owners, have renamed the team. Henceforth it will be known as the Falcons. Adams has drawn heavily from the Detroit Olympics, International ‘League team, for his squad this sea- son. Seven players, all new to big league skating, have been brought up from the minor league club. Herb Stuart, who guarded the nets for the Olympics during the iast three years, is the new Falcon goalie. Tom- my Filmore, Bert McInenly and Stan McCabe, wingmen with the minor league club last year, and Jimmy Creighton, center ice man, have been brought up. Two years ago Creighton was an amateur at Brandon, Man.

L. Starbeck, line coach, who was in charge of the squad in the absence of Jack West, head coach. West had gone on ahead of his play- ers and joined the team at Chicago this morning. The Flickertails are asking no quarter from the Army and are deter- mined to upset the men of Major Sasse when they meet in the Nodaks’ first intersectional battle of the sea- son on a foreign gridiron. The No- daks will battle the Los Angeles Ath- letic club on Christmas day in the ‘West Coast city and may make an- other long jaunt, this one to the South, before they check in their suits and call it a season.

Gopher Strategist Is Thinking Hard As Contest Nears Tries to Forecast Weather Con- ditions in Preparing for Northwestern Minneapolis, Oct. 30.—()—Devis- ing the University of Minnesota’s plan of attack and defense for the ;Northwestern game Saturday took Fritz Crisler, head coach strategist, into-another contemplative study to- day, one developing from weather conditions. A wet field or snow is likely to hamper the Gopher style as much as that of Northwestern, and Crisler hardly cares to make an overnight change in his tactics. The Gophers, even though they have worked heavily to prepare a running and plunging attack to use with forward passes, can lose balance on a wet gridiron and fumble a ‘slip- pery football as often as the Wild- cats. A plunging game may give Minnesota a better chance with her defensively formidable line, but the tricky plays—double passes, fakes and lateral passes—will hate little oppor- tunity to be executed in the right way. Today Crisler had his last chance to give the Gopher varsity one of the ‘serimmages which have characterized this week’s work. He confounded the experts last week by refusing to drill the gridders in scrimmage. Crisler, however, was crossed up by the weather today and unless the weather improved later in the day the Go- phers will not scrimmage. With the exception of Harold An- derson, the team appeared to be phy- sically fit for the game with North- western. Anderson may have to warm the bench because of his bad knee. Lloyd Stein's bad ankle and infected leg appeared to have healed sufficiently to permit of playing. Developments over the past two days in drill make things look as though Crisler will not start Jack Manders, sophomore fullback, against the Wildcats. Russ Leksell, veteran back, has pees his choice for fullback, with Brockmeyer at quarterWack A) Sam Swartz and Clint Riebeth as half backs. 7 OUR BOARDING HOUSE By Ahern APTER“THIS , MRS, HOOPLE, 4 Nol’ OUGHT cHEck-uP ON NEW BOARDERS !... ~~ TAKE “HAT CHAPMAN FELLA ,WHO WAS HERE AND PULLED A SHIPT- PLAY ON “TH” COPS ~_ wi WAS HIGH-VOLTAGE AK?

The Buckeyes had an open date last Saturday, giving them two weeks dur- ing which to get primed for the Badgers, and adie Wisconsin of the opportunity to scouting its next foe. Ohio State used the double wingback offensive in its games with Northwestern and Michigan, both of which resulted in Buckeye defeats. Reports from Columbus hint that Coach Sam Willaman has used the two weeks to completely reorganize his offense. Drills Against Wingback Now knowing what Ohio State will use in its attack, Wisconsin has spent the week drilling against the double wingback, which is the same as its own system, along with preparing a defense against the stuff Ohio used up until this season. Wisconsin and Ohio will meet for the first time since 1919 Saturday, but Coach Thistlethwaite saw earlier Buckeye attacking plays while he was head coach at Northwestern, -from where he went to The Badgers have recovered from the physical beating taken with their 7 to 6 defeat by Purdue last week, and will be fit for the battle at Columbus. Another rivalry which has not been exercised in a decade, will reopen at Champaign, Ill., where Purdue meets Illinois, The Boilermakers last faced | P@88er Illinois in 1920 and were beaten by a touchdown. This season, however, Purdue appears to have all the better of it. Illinois has lost two Big Ten games, while Purdue has won two out of three, and appears to be gaining momentum. Northwestern yesterday went through its last stiff drill in prepar- ation for Minnesota Saturday. The Minneapolis, and will be at top strength.

Trick Plays Help Keep Team Awake, Master Declares Yost Has Seen 100 or More of Them; Not Always Touch- down-Makers By FIELDING H. YOST Ann Arbor, Mich., Oct. 30—(P)}— Trick plays in football are not cer- tain touchdown makers. “Why does ‘Old 83’ always make a score?” I was asked the morning aft- er the jan-Purdue game in which Michigan’s most written-about Play worked for the final touchdown. None of the trick plays, “Old 83” included make touchdowns every day, but the tricks bring enough points to keep football teams wide awake. One other score of the Purdue-Michigan game was a trick, a bluff buck by Yunevich which ended as a forward PeTrick and deception plays have been @ part of football since its be- ginning. In 35 years of football I have watched probably 100 such plays, including spreads, split bucks, man in motion, bluff passes, spinner plays as well as the bluff buck which turns into a pass. The plays are intended to deceive the defense in two ways—either to cause it to hesitate when it should dash in and press the play or to de- fend a point where the play does not go. nds on Conditions A trick play would not work with the attacking team on its own ten yard line, 14 points behind and a minute to play. Any team cammtls of getting the margin of 14 points would wait for the play to develop. Three plays at Michigan have scored many touchdowns. “Old 83” is the best known, followed closely by the “Statue of Liber- ty” while the third is known as the Minnesota pass. ‘The first two are well known while the tl is a buck and criss cross, {ending’in a long forward pass. | The “Statue of Liberty” is used [against a team which is pressing the’ rainy day. + One of my, instructions to quarter- backs and captains was never to run @ trick play at a poor end.

Yale-Army Tiff Seems Finished | Pictures Do Not Show Unneces- sary Roughness in Play That Hurt Booth New York, Oct. 30.—(7)—Now that the last move has been shown and the last old grad has been more or less placated, it seems that Yale and Army played a hard clean football game which ended in a 17-7 tie last Saturday. Motion pictures, viewed at West Point yesterday, show there was no unnecesary roughness in the play which ended Albie Booth’s stay in the game, but photographic evidence from New Haven @ few days ago ap- peared to show that the Cadet touch- down had been scored illegally. The apparent pile-up on Booth, when viewed through the camera, proved to be on top of some other Yale player, unidentified except by his number, 24, who recovered | r' the ball after Booth had fumbled it. Albie, after escaping from the clutches of Bowman, was tackled and hit his scramble after the ball, which eluded | Sharo! or three feet away. .

Requests for post-season games for the benefit of charity literally poured upon conference officials; but they refused to consider them. Probably the most insistent de- mand for an exception of th con- ference post-season rule for charity's sake came from Michigan where at- tempts were being ade to schedule @ charity game beiw.-en the Univer- sity of Michigan and the University of Detroit on Thanksgiving day. The Detroit city council demanded the game and so did Gov. Fred W. Green, who bitterly attacked the conference's stand. Another attack was centerea from Chicago because of the refusal of the conference to sanction the proposed transfer of the site of the Notre Dame-Northwestern game, Nov. 22, from Dyche stadium, Evanston, to Soldier field, Chicago. Despite the refusal to break the rule, prohibiting Big Ten teams to play home games away fron. their home fields, consid- erable pressure still was being brought to bear on conference officials. Pro- ponents of the transfer claimed that more than $100,000 would be realized for charity with the sale of extra seats available in Soldier field for the contest. One Big Ten official, who did not care to reveal his name, said while one or two charity games were per- missible conference officials felt 2ay exceptions to the post-season o: home Playing rules would result in a whole - sale disregard for all rules ultimately.

Primary efforts have been made to perfect a Minnesota offense, but after looking over Northwestern against Centre last Saturday, Crisler is not forgetting defense despite the fact that this portion of the Minne- sota game has shown greater strength than the attack in games to date.
